Pearl of Wisdom

in his letter to Malik al-Ashtar when he appointed him governor of Egypt, said, 'Surely the virtuous are known by the reputation that Allah circulates for them through the tongues of His creatures. Therefore, the best collection with you should be the collection of good deeds. So control your passions and deprive your heart from doing what is not lawful for you, because depriving the heart means detaining it just half way between what it likes and dislikes.'

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]

Be it known that the best a'mal for middle of Rajab is Do'a-e-Umme Dawood. It is best for fulfilment of desires and removal of oppressions and calamities. Imam Ja'far-e-Sadiq (A.S.) said"Do not teach this amal to each and everyone lest some should perform it for illegitimate purpose. It contains Great Name of Allah (Isme Azam) and every desire will be attained for which it is performed in spite of all hurdles, even if doors of heaven and earth are shut as it were, Allah will suffice even if all the mankind and genie are against the performer and every body will be subjugated. If performed, in any other month other than Rajab, in the middle of the month after observing fast on 13th, 14th and 15th it will carry the same benefit. It is also beneficial to perform this amal on any auspicious day like Friday or Arfa without observing fast.

-Observe fast on 13th, 14th and 15th Rajab. On 15th take bath at the time when the sun passes the meridian (waqt-e-Zawal) put on clean clothes and sit on a clean mat at a place of seclusion so that nobody interferes.

-Offer 8 Rakat Nafal-e-Zuhr with best attention and then offer Namaz-e-Zuhr.

-After that offer 2 Rakat Namaz reciting any soora after AI-Hamd in each Rakat. After finishing say for 100 times:

O' Allah! Send Your Blessings on Mohammed and his Progeny.

In the name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful.

O' the fulfiller of the needs of seekers!

O' Allah! Send Your Blessings on Mohammad and his Progeny. Ameen

Allahoomma Salle Alaa Mohammadin Wa Aale Mohammad

BISMILLA HIR RAHMA NIR RAHIM

Ya Qazial Hawaijit Talibeena.

Allahoomma Salle Alaa Mohammadin Wa Aale Mohammad, Ameen.

-Then offer 8 Rakat Nafal-e-Asr, offering Namaz-e-Asr afterwards.

-Thereafter recite :-

O' Who restored Musa to his mother! O' the bestower of increasing knowledge to Khizr, O' Who blessed Dawood with Sulaiman! and Zacharia with Yahya and Maryam with Isa!

O' who protected the daughter of Sho'ib! O' who looked after the Mother of Musa!

I beseech You to bestow Your blessings, on Mohammad and his progeny and to forgive all my sins and protect me from Your chastisement and render Your pleasure implicite for me as also Your trust. Your benevolence, Your forgiveness and Your Paradise.

And I beseech You to remove from me all such links that are between me and those who annoy me and request You to open for me every door and lighten every hardship and make every difficulty easy and save me against every evil tongue and hold back from me every rebellious person and turn topsy-turry every enemy of mine jealous of me and withhold every oppressor from me and be You sufficient for me against every barrier that comes between me and my desires and tries to turn me away from obedience to You or diverts me from my devotion to You.

O' Who controlled the rebellious genni and punished the rebellious, humiliated the conceited and dispelled the devices of the powerful against the weak.

I ask You in the name of Your Power on whatever You will and the Ease for whatever you will and howsoever You will to fulfil my desires as You will.
